Power to the People:

Fueling the Revolution for Energy Justice

NAACP’s Environmental and Climate Justice (ECJ) Program, units, branches, and state conferences are leading the way in energy justice. We are at the forefront, fighting for community-owned solar, anti-fracking bills, local hire provisions and MANY more initiatives that create clean air, clean energy, and economic justice for all.

NAACP will end corporate greed in non-renewable, toxic energy that poisons frontline communities and will take the power – both utility power and social power – back to the people where it belongs.

Energy Justice Across the Nation

NAACP has energy justice work underway in every state across the country. Our local units, branches, and state conferences are fighting to keep clean, renewable energy and local, green jobs a priority.

"We must DISSENT from a nation that has buried its head in the sand, waiting in vain for the needs of its poor, its elderly, and its sick to disappear and just blow away...We must dissent from the poverty of vision and the absence of moral leadership."
